Answer:

The total monthly fixed cost and the variable cost per hour is $1,540 and $23

The average contribution margin per hour is $27

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High service hours - low service hours)

= ($11,200 - $4,300) ÷ (420 hours - 120 hours)

= $6,900 ÷ 300 hours

= $23

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High service hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $11,200 - (420 hours × $23)

= $11,200 - $9,660

= $1,540

For computing the contribution margin per hour, first we have to compute the revenue per hour which is shown below:

= Revenue ÷ service hours

= $6,000 ÷ 120 hours

= $50

We know that,

The contribution per hour = Revenue per hour - variable cost per hour

                                           = $50 - $23

                                           = $27

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

By answering more phone calls but providing worse service, you ARE being EFFICIENT but NOT <u>SATISFY CUSTOMERS' NEEDS</u>.

Explanation:

A worker's efficiency is measured by the total output per hour of labor. In this case, since you are answering more calls per hour, your efficiency is increasing (higher output per hour).

The quality of the service provided by a worker's is measured by the quality of their output (or performance), and if you satisfy your customers' needs. Since the service that you are providing is not that good, then your quality levels are decreasing.

You may be producing more services, but the services produced lack good quality.
